Jello shots are the work of the devil, so it's appropriate for you to have them on Halloween. I used to make lots of flavors - red, blue, orange (some like that stuff), etc.

Vodka is fine for them, but I have also used rum, tequila, and I made Manhattan jello shots, too. Cherry jello, sweet vermouth, and wild turkey. Bacardi 151 makes for some scary jello shots, as does everclear.

You can also experiment with other odd jello flavors (i.e. make a pina coloda jello shot, etc). I also like to do some marachino cherries that you poke holes in with toothpicks and incubate in everclear or 151 overnight. They soak up lots of booze and become flammable. Quite cool and tasty. Also lead to people puking in your bushes.

Receipe? I never heard of jello shots before, then again we don't celebrate Halloween?

do you remember what flavor combos you used with the tequila?

Also, did you use "skank" tequila like Cuervo or what?

Thanks for the info.

This link is all you will need. I have done about 20 different kinds and most of them go over very well at parties.

Oh, remember to spray the cups with a little bit of Pam cooking spray before pouring in the jello. It makes them come out much easier and doesn't do anything to the taste.

Throwing a halloween party. There will be jello shooters.

What is the best flavor in your opinion?

Ever had a jello shot that wasn't made with vodka? For example, anyone ever had a lime flavored tequila jello shot? Was it any good?

There's a reason they use vodka. You're not supposed to taste the alcohol.

Tequila? Oh god. May as well just pour shots and save the set time for the jello.

Rum would be interesting. Probably go best since it's common in fruit drinks.

Whiskey would make everyone gag.

Goldschlagger might also be interesting. Thinking on those terms, flavored vodkas might be worth looking into. Think in terms of accentuating the flavor of the jello, not competing with it.
